    Can even Pac fans say he has done this? Who and when if at all? Will Hatton count as the first one if Pacquiao wins or is Hatton past it? Will he ever accomplish this?

    I have a feeling Pac's opponents have had the same respect for Pac as you do, and Pac has destroyed them all. The guy who ends up beating Pac will be a humble well prepared good fighter. And Hatton isn't that.

    I think Pac's destruction of Barrera and JMM (the first fight) are two easy fights that come to mind. I know the JMM fight was RULED a draw, but pac wooped Jmm, and the face proves what I am talking about. Pac didn't even look like he was in a fight. I wish my favorite fighters had draws like that.

    I said convincingly so this excludes either Marquez fight.

    This has nothing to do with the question but I should not need to explain why Valero is just starting to move towards bigger and better things, should I?

    Pacquiao, unlike Valero has had the opportunity to fight top prime fighters. But, I say again this has nothing to do with the question.
